About Me

CURRENT MISSION

“We have all known the long loneliness, and we have found that the answer is community.”

ABOUT ME

Just got back after spending several months in the Philippines working in a Maternity center, it was my second trip and I hope to make another one within the year.
I have a Master of Science in Oriental Medicine. My experience includes a year of training in the largest free clinic in the United States, serving as a primary care physician for the multitude of homeless and in-need communities of Chicago and over two years working with the School Sisters of Saint Francis in Wisconsin. I have been a massage therapist for the last five years and specialize in eastern, pregnancy and orthopedic massages.
I am also a trained doula, studied midwifery and has traveled internationally to help assist women in labor.
I believe in eastern medicine's philosophy to get to the root of the problem in order to treat illness and help prevent disease before it starts.

PHILOSOPHY

Love and forgiveness
